On Repeat: "Come To Me"

I was on my way home from work a couple of weeks ago and heard the song "Hold Me" on KLOVE.  It was unlike any other Christian song I had heard in a long time. Sort of like Colbie Caillat: a fun, relaxed, catchy song with an artist that had a unique tone.  I found out it was Jamie Grace.  If you haven't heard any of her songs, I highly recommend to look her up.

I heard another one of her songs this morning, and it is stuck in my head. The chorus of the song is a paraphrase of a couple of verses that got me through a lot of tough times during and after college.

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." - Matthew 11:28-30

I know I don't say these verses to myself enough when things get hectic and I feel weary from the life's events.  I need to remind myself that Jesus desires me to walk life free of burdens through resting in Him. What truth, grace, and power rest in Him.

Have a great Monday!
